Volatility Framework Command : Using dlllist - dlldump to extricate DLLfile details

 This post will share an example to run the two volatility terminal commands including dllllist and dlldump  to display a process's loaded DLLs.

Before I proceed ahead,I would assume that you have installed volatility in your Linux system(in my case I am using UBUNTU, Installation explained at my earlier post at http://anupriti.blogspot.in/2015/09/volatility-advanced-memory-forensics.html) and you have a RAM dump of the OS u desire to analyse.In my case here I have taken the RAM dump of a Windows 7 OS as explained here at http://anupriti.blogspot.in/2015/09/volatility-command-using-imageinfo-to.html

dlllist

dlllist is used to display a process's loaded DLLs.DLLs are automatically added to this list when a process calls LoadLibrary (or some derivative such as LdrLoadDll).

vol.py --profile=Win7SP0x86 -f windows7_image.raw dlllist

To display the DLLs for a specific process instead of all processes, there is option to use the switch -p or --pid filter as shown below:

vol.py --profile=Win7SP0x86 -f windows7_image.raw dlllist --pid=1892

To display the DLLs for a process that is hidden or unlinked by a rootkit, first use the psscan to get the physical offset of the EPROCESS object and then:

vol.py --profile=Win7SP0x86 -f windows7_image.raw dlllist --offset=0x04a291a8

dlldump

dlldump command is used to extract a DLL from a process's memory space and dump it to disk for analysis.The syntax is nearly the same as what has been seen earlier with any command.This plugin provisions the following :

- Dump all DLLs from a hidden/unlinked process (with --offset=OFFSET)
- Dump all DLLs from a specific process (with --pid=PID)
- Dump all DLLs from all processes
- Dump a PE from anywhere in process memory (with --base=BASEADDR), this option is useful for extracting hidden DLLs

To specify an output directory, use --dump-dir=DIR or -d DIR.

vol.py --profile=Win7SP0x86 -f windows7_image.raw dlldump --dump-dir output

where output is the name of directory where u get the dll dump

the output directory will be seen as seen below :

Fierce Domain Scan by FIERCE @ Kali Linux

1.   This post gives a stepped screen shot version of a relatively unknown but powerful tool known as Fierce. It is a perl script written by rsnake. Fierce tries multiple techniques to find all the IP addresses and hostnames used by a target. Fierce is meant specifically to locate likely targets both inside and outside a corporate network.A very detailed explanation with ease is given at http://ha.ckers.org/fierce/

2.  To use Fierce, navigate to Information Gathering | DNS Analysis | Fierce.
Fierce will load into a terminal window as shown in the following screen shot.

DOMAIN INFORMATION GROPER : DIG@Kali LINUX

1.    Most high-value targets have a DNS name associated to an application. DNS names make it easier for users to access a particular service and add a layer of professionalism to their system. For example, if you want to access Google for information, you could open a browser and type in 74.125.68.138 or type www.google.com

2.  DNS information about a particular target can be extremely useful to a Penetration Tester. DNS allows a Penetration Tester to map out systems and subdomains. To use Dig, open a command prompt and type dig and hostname, where hostname represents the target domain. 

3.  Dig lookups will show the DNS records for the given host or domain. This gateway allows lookups for network address, mail exchanger, name servers, host information, arbitrary strings and zone of authority records. Please leave the server field blank to query a properly configured internet DNS cache.Dig will use your operating systems default DNS settings to query the hostname.You can also configure Dig to query custom DNS servers by adding @ to the command. The example in the following screen shot illustrates using Dig on http://www.hacklabs.com/

 

4.   The -t option in Dig will delegate a DNS zone to use the authoritative name
servers. We type dig -t ns http://www.hacklabs.com/ in the example in the
following screen shot:

             

5.  We see from the results we have two authoritative DNS servers for the domain http://www.hacklabs.com/; they are ns51.domaincontrol.com and ns51.domaincontrol.com
